Abstract (en)
[origin: WO0154588A1] An improved vascular incisor (14) and method for allowing a user to safely create an incision in a body lumen. The present invention provides an apparatus which can create in surrounding body structures, such as the back wall of the ascending aorta. The incisor (14) includes a surgical element such as a blade (40) which is activated by an actuator (42). As the actuator (42) is depressed, the blade (40) is moved from a protected, retracted position to an exposed, deployed position. The exposed blade (40) is pushed into a front wall of the ascending aorta to create an incision. As the actuator (42) is depressed further, the blade (40) is automatically moved to the retracted position to prevent the blade (40) from incising the back wall of the aorta.
